Weird, wonder how good it'll be:

And why does the German Korg site just look slicker than the .com or .co.uk ones?

i think it looks GREAT! Has a very Krafterk vibe to it. Think it would fit great next to my, roland sp404 and microkorg!

The video has been removed from youtube, but I saw it yesterday; the Kaossilator will be mine! :D
I think it looks awesome, and for the incredibly low price there's no question. I suspect it will steal a lot of potential Tenori-on customers.

Actually, I think that should be 117£. Nevertheless it's an incredible deal, and the lack of midi is no issue at that price.
I can't wait to get my hands on this unit! The sounds will probably soon get boring quite fast, but couple it with a decent effect processor (like my Korg Triton rack), this shouldn't be too much of a concern.

Ahhh, this was indeed good news after realising the Yamaha Tenori-on will be much too expensive for me the coming year :D

that makes sense.. it will like the same price of the mini kp then.. maybe a little cheaper..

Yeah... and the miniKP would be a great & cheap effect processor to couple it with :)

It's strange that Daz and Sharp still haven't written anything about that topic...
That make me think they're looking...and laughing...because they know something but can't tell us :wink:

You know, i'm really surprised that actual keyboards don't have some form of Y-axis sensors on them - like individual vertical ribbon controllers ON THE ACTUAL KEYS themselves, so you can slide your fingers back and forth for additional and extremely dynamic live modulation.

Along with velocity, mono aftertouch, and the mod wheels, it would make a keyboard as expressive as a guitar is.

3- or 4-dimensional live sound manipulation

Modulation is where it's at!

That's such a cool idea ... I like :-)
